Volume 67: Terrorism and the Internet
Abstract

The Internet has become the prime tool for extremist propaganda. This paper explores the history of extremism online as well as examining some of the methods and techniques used by extremists. It ranges from the earliest use by neo-Nazis to the surge in terrorist websites since 9/11, and also reflects on the increasing technical sophistication of extremists in what is currently called Internet 2.0. Finally, some suggestions are offered in how civil society can begin to take steps in countering this use without surrendering basic civil liberties.
